The Cult set for summer UK shows

The Cult have announced three special summer shows in Cardiff, Halifax and Scarborough alongside a full EU Tour.

Accompanying the tour announcement is the release of The Cultā€™s fiery, expressionistic new video for ā€˜Vendetta Xā€™, the third single from ‘Under The Midnight Sun’.

The Cult – ‘Vendetta X’

AsĀ The CultĀ return to the stage to launch the next chapter ofĀ ‘Under The Midnight Sun’,Ā Ian AstburyĀ hopes that the albumā€™s new dimensions provoke reactions both primal and sublime in listenersā€™ consciousness – echoing what he himself experienced during its creation.

ā€œAt the core of it all, music contains the vibrational frequency of how we once communicated before we could even speak,ā€ Astbury says. ā€œBird songs, animal calls, string theory, quantum physics, psychedelicsā€¦ The record ultimately becomes about discovering and celebrating anew the beauty from those strangely natural moments that surround and inspire us.ā€

Ā 
ā€œBefore we held back on being too rocky, but this time we allowed ourselves to create what we wanted to hear, without restricting ourselves. We also allowed ourselves to express the different colours to our music with tracks like ā€˜Goldenā€™ and ā€˜By Your Sideā€™, so this album has more extremes.Ā  We still call upon our influences from all the years but remain true to ourselves to create music we love.ā€

Dead Man’s Whiskey return with ‘Masquerade’

Dead Man’s Whiskey – ‘Masquerade’

Dead Man’s Whiskey have this week shared their latest single, ‘Masquerade’, which you can check out above!

The single is the first track to be taken from a forthcoming new studio album, ‘In The Storm’, due out September 29th.

Vocalist Nico Rogers says,Ā ā€œ’This song has been a bit of a journey for us. In its earliest form we’ve had this song for a couple of years, although it’s grown a lot.

It’s brimming with a kind of dissatisfied energy we all had while we wrote it, in a way I think a lot of people will feel too. It’s a rallying cry against what’s happened to music right now, the three ringed circus of algorithmically generated hits that keep turning up. We know how far we are from those perfect cookie cutter artists and this song is about that dichotomy. We don’t want to conform, we make the music we love.
Ā 
I think that shows in the sound too, not just on this track, but on the album as a whole. It’s heavier, darker. Like we got a little older, found a new gear, and now we’re going full throttle in it.ā€

Fixation – ‘Ignore the Disarray’

Norwegian metalcore act Fixation are now gearing up for their debut album with the release of a brand new single ‘Ignore the Disarray’.

About the new track the band states:Ā ā€œThis song is about those with a desire to control other people. It’s not about religion itself, but about those who use religion or their perception of reality to justify oppression, hate and control.ā€Ā 

DEADLETTER – ‘The Snitching Hour’

DEADLETTERĀ share new single ā€˜The Snitching Hourā€™.

Lead singer Zac Lawrence comments: “Are we slowly but surely being tacitly tempted into a culture of casual betrayal? The messages we are fed, on the outside, might be read as being solely in the interest of public safety – but take a closer look, and perhaps thereā€™s a more insidious undertone to it allā€¦”

The Throwaway Scene – ‘Fake Death’

Sheffield emo rock outfit, The Throwaway Scene have released their brand new single ā€˜Fake Deathā€™.

ā€œThis track is a slight departure from my previous lyrical stylings/choices with a view of exploring narrative that was less self-centered. I think vocally it just ā€œfeelsā€ different too ā€˜cos the delivery of the lines is a lot more direct than before. Due to lifeā€™s unfortunate timing we were recording vocals on the day we found out a family member had passed so Fake Death will always be quite a personal song.ā€ – Vocalist, Oliver.
